完形填空。     My grandmother became a widow in 1970. Shortly after that, we went to the   1   shelter to pick out a dog
to keep her   2  . Grandma decided on a little dog with a reddish-brown spot above each eye   3   these spots,
the dog was named Penny.
     Grandma and Penny quickly became very   4   to each other, but that attachment grew much stronger about
three years later   5   Grandma had a stroke (中风). Grandma could no longer   6  , so when she came home
from the hospital, she and Penny were   7   companions.
     After her stroke, it became a real   8   for Grandma to let Penny in and out because   9   was at the bottom
of a flight of stairs. So a mechanism (机械装置) using a rope and pulley (滑轮) was  10  from the door to a
handle at the top of the stairs. Grandma just had to pull the handle to open arid close the door. If the store was
11  Penny"s favorite dog food, Grandma would make one of us  12  Penny browned beef with potatoes in it.
I can remember  13  my grandmother by saying that she loved that dog better than she loved her family.
     As the years passed, it was not  14  for Grandma and Penny to separate each other. If Grandma went to take
her nap (打盹), Penny stayed by her side until she  15 . As Penny aged, she could no longer jump up on the bed,
so she  16  on the rug (垫子) beside the bed. If Grandma went into the  17 , Penny would walk along beside her,
wait outside the door and accompany her  18  to the bed or chair. Grandma never went anywhere without her
19  companion by her side.
     The time came when both my grandmother"s and Penny"s  20  were failing fast. After fifteen years of loving
companionship, Grandma and Penny passed away within a few hours of each other.

     Life is like potato salad; when it"s shared it becomes a picnic.
     When my three children were young, my husband, Roy, and I were very   1 .
     "Can we go on a picnic, Mom?" my six-year-old daughter, Becky   2 . "Please".
     I had said no so many times in the   3   months, and I decided the usual Saturday morning chores (日常工
作) could wait. To her   4  , I agreed.
     I prepared a few sandwiches and   5   a cooler with ice and drinks and called Roy   6  . My eleven-year-old
twin sons put the cooler and the picnic basket in the trunk and off we went to spend some   7   time together
as a family.
    About the time I got the lunch   8   out on the table, Roy arrived on the   9 .
     That was one of the happiest meals we ever shared together. The meal was filled with  10 . We felt a
closeness that hadbeen hidden by work and school  11  for so many months. Roy and the boys  12  rocks
into the lake. Becky fed the ducks and I sat quietly on the picnic table,  13  God for blessing me with such
a wonderful family.
     That night as our  14  went to bed, I kissed their cheeks and realized what a wonderful life I had.
    As I walked out of the room it dawned on me that even the busiest  15  could become a picnic when it"s
shared with the ones you  16 .
     Even though the kids have now grown up and  17  from home, I can still remember how I felt that day
while sitting at the picnic table.
     Maybe today would be a good time to  18  potato salad, call all of my grown kids, feed some hungry  19
and skipped a few rocks into the lake. Since life is like potato salad, let"s make it a  20 .

     Mr. Dawson was an old bad-tempered man, and everyone in town knew it. Kids knew not to go into his
yard to pick apples, because old Dawson, they said, would come after you with his gun.
    One Friday, 12-year-old Janet was walking out with her friend Amy. They had to   1   Dawson"s house,
but as they got   2 , Janet saw him sitting on his front porch and suggested they cross over the street. Like
most, she was   3   of the old man.
    Amy said, "Don"t   4  ." When they got close enough, Dawson looked up with his   5   frown (皱眉), but
when he saw it was Amy, he gave a broad   6  .
     Amy smiled back and told him that they were going to listen to music. Dawson told them that sounded
   7 , and gave them each a(n)   8  .
     Later, Janet asked Amy, "Everyone says he"s the   9   man in town  10  he was so nice to us?"
     Amy explained that when she  11  started walking past his house, he wasn"t very  12 , either, but she
pretended he was wearing a(n)  13  smile, so she always smiled. It really took some time  14  he one day half-
smiled back.
     After a while, he started smiling a real smile and then  15  to her. She said he always  16  her an apple now,
and was always very kind.
     In our everyday life we are always very busy doing a lot of things and trying to accomplish so much. It"s
30  17  to forget that we can bring  18  to ourselves and others. Giving a smile takes so little  19 , but few
people are aware of that. Please do remember after a while most people can"t  20  our sunniness at all.

     One day the employees of a large company in St Louis, Missouri returned from their lunch break and
were greeted with a sign on the front door. The sign said: ""Yesterday the person who has been hindering
(阻碍) your growth in this company passed away. We invite you to join the funeral (葬礼) in the room

a sign next to the mirror that said:"There is only one person who can set limits to your growth: It is YOU."

     The night started out ordinarily enough. Jack and Tara, our   1  , were in their small beds surrounded by
toy animals. My husband, Pat, and I went to sleep   2 .
       3   after midnight, Jack quietly touched me. "Mommy, I want to stay with you. I promise I won"t take
much room." I shifted   4   to make room. My son soon fell asleep.
     An hour later, Tara cried and I carefully went downstairs. "Mommy, my   5   is an stuffed up (堵住). I
can"t really breathe very well. Will you please   6   with me a little while?" Tara doesn"t often get up at night.
   7  . I decided to be there for her. She soon fell asleep. I returned to my own bed. I was determined to sleep.
But to my   8  , I found Jack sleeping on my side of the bed. He looked so   9   that I couldn"t remove him.
Quietly and carefully, I lay down between  10  and Jack.
     I did manage to get some sleep  11  I heard Tara"s voice again. I returned to  12  Tara. "Mom, please lie
down with me a little bit. I had a bad dream, and I"m so  13 ." "Of course, honey. It was only a dream
Mommy"s here and  14  is okay." We fell asleep  15  each other"s arms.
     Even in my sleepy state, I thought of  16  these nights of merry-go-round (一连串的繁忙活动) beds will
be over. In their place, my twins will be grown  17  before I"m ready, our children" rooms will be much too
  18  and empty. So it is especially on days when I"m worn out after a night on this mom"s merry-go-round
